    The courtyard
    Amy T.

    We really loved our stay at the Frenchmen! The location was very convenient. The hotel itself was cute. The pool was the perfect spot to take a dip in the middle of the day. There is a nice convenience store around the corner. We'd definitely go back.

    Adorable art-filled hotel in the heart of Frenchmen St. Quiet, cute, safe, friendly staff, comfy bed - everything you need. We will be back!

    Pool and hot tub

    New Orleans was my getaway stomping grounds when I was but a young lass at Alabama State University. The Bayou Classic, journalism conferences and all-around foolishness were the reasons for my visits in the early 90s. The Essence Fest in 2004, my last visit, left an indelible mark in my brain, making NOLA one of my top 3 US cities. So how is it that I did not return until last month? A baby, work and life, in general, are the answers. The Frenchmen provided another mystical, magical, seductively intriguing reason that the Crescent City lives up to its reputation. I felt like I stepped into the live version of Princess and the Frog and started looking for Dr. Facilier so I could sell my soul to the devil. Located out of the fray of the French Quarter, but just a 5-minute walk to all the action, the Frenchmen gave off voodoo vibes at the door. My daughter and I were quite impressed with the welcoming lobby area as the friendly front desk host checked us in quickly. Our beautiful room featured bright colors, gorgeous artwork and a large, modern bathroom. The best parts of the Frenchmen were the pool and hot tub, which we visited each day we were there. When I go back, I will most definitely bring stay here again! Can't wait!

    4 stars for its central location and aesthetics. It was very convenient in getting to all the tourist attractions without having to deal with the night life noise. The room we stayed in 207 faced the courtyard and it did not have any windows. Bed and pillows were comfortable and the staff was very friendly.

    Lovely pool and hot tub in the beautiful courtyard

    I LOVE this hotel. Kit at the front desk was super accommodating and my room was comfortable, cool (great AC), and well appointed. A boutique hotel with great amenities like a lovely pool and hot tub, snacks in the room you can purchase, and a great little lobby where you can buy some pieces from local artists. Obviously, this is on Frenchman Street, so there are great restaurants, bars and MUSIC. Yes, it is noisy. The front desk has ear plugs if you want... I knew what I was getting into so I also brought a travel white noise maker and had no trouble. Do not try to bring a car to this area and find/pay for parking. Much better to make alternate plans for this part of your NOLA experience and use cabs, Lyft or pub transport. Walking distance to everything.

    Room 109

    The BF and I stayed at the Frenchmen with 2 other couples as part of a birthday celebration a few weeks ago. The hotel is absolutely adorable, and very true to website pics. The courtyard area with pool and hot tub is cozy and beautiful. The rooftop bar is a great space to gather for pregaming before you go out or night caps when you get back. Nothing was going on up at the bar when we were there - I'm not sure if it's used for special events/occasions only, but it was nice to have the space. We stayed in room 109 (petite queen), which would be perfect for 1, but a little snug for 2. While one of us was cleaning up, the other would hang by the pool and then we'd switch off. Sleeping was no problem, but 2 people in the room trying to get ready at the same time is a bit of an awkward dance. We always had hot water and the bed was very comfortable. Also, we LOVED the artwork in that room. 109 faces the courtyard and noise was never a problem for us. The only inconvenience was that the bathroom door didn't close completely - it would get stuck at the top. I contribute that to old architecture and humidity. It didn't bother me too much. The lock felt a bit flimsy, but it worked. The continental breakfast was basic, but that's what continental breakfasts are. Coffee, milk, juice, cereal, fruit, etc. It was nice to be able to grab a little something before venturing out for the day. Staff at the Frenchmen was awesome. For the most part, everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. Shout out to Dave and Malcolm, who were particularly memorable. Frenchmen Street itself was bustling - lots of little restaurants and shops, plus a great brewery right around the corner! Short walk from all the sights of Decatur and Bourbon Street, and the French Market is super close. TONS of live music here, as everyone else will tell you. I think next time I would request a slightly larger room - maybe a deluxe queen - but I would absolutely stay here again and recommend the Frenchmen!

    Toilet proximity to sink and wall where door closed - directly behind sink. It was TIGHT!!

    This hotel is fairly simple. Our room (booked Queen) was extremely small but the larger issue was it was so musty. It hit you like a ton of bricks when you walked in. Try to avoid the rooms downstairs closest to Tiki Bar as our friends who stayed there too had larger rooms upstairs and not as musty. In our room, you were literally sitting on the toilet and touching the sink at the same time - like could brush your teeth there if you so desired. You could barely squeeze between them and you couldn't close the door and bend over sink either at the same time. I think it's the tiniest bathroom I've ever been in - seriously laughable. And the bed is about two feet away from the door so zero privacy. I would unfortunately not recommend this hotel to anyone I know. I'm upset we paid as much as we did to stay here. The location is good and pool was nice. Reception person was really nice as well.

    See all

The 2 things I care most about when staying in a hotel is a comfortable night's rest and a good bathroom/shower. The bed in our room was the most uncomfortable mattress I have ever slept on in my entire life. It was so mushy that when you laid your head down, you sunk so far into it that your legs were literally 45 degrees above your head. I ended up sleeping upside down in the bed with my head where your feet go in order to feel even remotely comfortable. The pillows were all extremely flat, when you put your head on one it sank so far your face was about 1/2 inch from the mattress. I had to use 3 pillows stacked on each other. I had a stiff back, neck and joints the entire time we were there. The 2nd issue was hot water. The first morning, we attempted to shower, it only got barely luke warm for me and when my husband showered immediately after he only got ice cold water. We stopped at the front desk that morning on our way out for the day and told the woman at the front desk. She said she hadn't received any other complaints so it must be specific to our room and she would send engineering there to look at it. (we were getting hot water in the sink). Later that evening when we returned to our room, we immediately tested the shower again and it was still ice cold. So we went back to the front desk to check if engineering had come. We spoke to the same woman from the morning who acted like it was the first time we were telling her this and she said the exact same thing. I asked if they were going to come ASAP because we needed to shower soon and we couldn't take ice cold showers. She ignored my question and answered the ringing phone. A manager happened to be at the desk and overheard our conversation. He asked what our room number was and said that because of the old building and the pipes the hot water takes longer to get there. He said this was a KNOWN Issue by the staff, management and the owner. He told us to run the shower for AT LEAST 15 to 20 minutes, simultaneously with the sink and it should get hot. He also offered to move us to a different room but when I asked if he could guarantee if we wouldn't have the same problem in that room he couldn't give me a straight answer. We had already unpacked everything and didn't want to go through that hassle without a guarantee. So we went back to the room and let it run for 20 minutes and it eventually got hot. So for the remaining 3 mornings, we had to set our alarms for 30 minutes earlier so we could get up and run our shower before hand. For nearly $300 a night, we felt that this was ridiculous. Old building or not, if its a problem, then either don't put people in those rooms, or get it fixed somehow. Why should anyone be subjected to an ice old shower or an inconvenience to their time because the owner hasn't done anything about it? We visited the hotel Bar, the Bourbon O'bar 3 times during our stay and each time we received TERRIBLE service. None of the bartenders were friendly to us, in fact they were pretty rude. Each time it took them at least 10 minutes to even take our order (by standing there and looking at us and not saying anything). The bar was not busy or crowded any of these times. They would then start making one of our drinks, put it down and make other people's drinks, leave and go into a back room, play on their cell phone, talk to each other, or carry the glass around while doing other things. My husband ordered an old fashioned and the alcohol was sitting in the jar with the ice for over 5 minutes while the bartender carried it around doing other things, causing it to get watered down. When making a cocktail, it should be completed from start to finish without doing other things in the middle. I ordered the Mardi Drop cocktail on 2 different days. The first time, it was actually very good. The 2nd time from a different bartender it was horrible .He also sprinkled probably a tablespoon of cinnamon on top of it (which the first didn't have) which made it nearly undrinkable. I had to stir it into the martini in order to not get a mouthful of cinnamon with each sip. We didn't eat at the hotel restaurant Roux because of the bad Yelp reviews - we felt we could get a better breakfast elsewhere outside the hotel. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel at all unless you don't care about being comfortable or friendly service.

At check-in the rep asked "did you mean to book that room?" Yes we did!! We originally requested a 3rd floor private balcony but were given a 4th floor private balcony and oh hell yea was this perfect. Open the French doors and the cacophony of Bourbon St. envelopes the room; it's everywhere. But close the French doors and it's quiet; how I don't know but perfectly comfortably quiet for us. Added bonus, this being Easter, our 4th floor balcony gave us such a fantastic viewing spot to watch the colorful sights coming down Bourbon heading to the gay Easter parade a few blocks away. Our room also gave us a great vantage point for watching sunrise with the St.Louis Cathedral steeple in the foreground. On our final night we decided to order take-out to enjoy from our balcony; dinner and a show essentially, and cheaper too.
